Non-slip bath coating near Anslow

Non-slip bath coating in Anslow, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

FAQs for Anslow

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Common problems we fix in Anslow

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How to care for the finish

How to compare quotes

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repair or replace in Anslow?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
